[T-Mobile LG G2x] ronlut:
Hi.

I'll try to keep it short.

My mom bought a phone from amazon titled "LG P990 Optimus 2X Unlocked".

We got it few days ago and she asked me to root and install cwm on it.

I thought it would be a really simple job (I myself have a galaxy s2), but I'm trying for a few days already without 100% success.

I tried treating the phone as an O2X but after successfully rooting it and trying to install a CWM not successfully, I opened the phone's case and saw that the model under the battery says: LGL95G.

The FCC ID is BEJP999DW.

Other info from the "About phone" section:

Model number: LG-P999
Android Version: 2.3.4
Baseband Version: M6600A-SCAUTNZ-2.0.9720T 1 [MAY 21 2012 16:00:00] MP:TRUGLE_08.09.02R_MDM
Kernel Version: 2.6.32.9
Build Number: GRJ22
Software Version: LG-P999-V10c-USA-XXX

I'm starting to think I should treat the phone as an LG-P999, but it looks like the phone in this thread: link.

So, few questions:

1. Should I treat the phone as an LG-P999 (G2X)?

2. Should I install

[RECOVERY]CWM-Based Recovery 5.0.2.8 For P999(Internal & External SD) and then [ROM]Rooted Stock v21y 2.3.4 GRJ22 to achieve a phone with stock 2.3.4 rooted and cwm installed?

3. Is my baseband ok for the rom I linked here? It says

and i have the may 2012 baseband..

Thanks a lot in advance, I'm really tired of guessing :)

Waiting for your help.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] monte666:
That is the straight talk g2x use nvflash to put a recovery on it. It uses g2x files so you are in the right forum. Only use g2x stuff o2x stuff doesn't play right unless someone ported it

I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE IF YR BLASTS OR WHATEVER HAPPEN

YOUR WARANTY AND BRAIN IS NOW VOID.

What is Rooting and its benefits? —its like jailbreaking but its your Android phone, unlocking the capabilities of your Android device with the apps and tweaks that requires root access to the Android system. Its not necessary but if time came and you realized that you need to root your phone, then it must be it.

What is CWM recovery? – cwm is short for clock work mod recovery. All Android phones have recovery mode already but clock work mode is better and you can do more with CWM, like installing patches, updates, and tweaks on your device.

Rooting myPhone A818

First, you must download these files:

SP Flash Tool — extract once downloaded. This is the app used for flashing an Android phone.

http://www.mediafire.com/?dridzg1tdokf2up

MT65x3 USB VCOM drivers –extract then install. We need these drivers so that the phone will be read by the SP Flash Tool once connected to the PC.

http://www.mediafire.com/?9wi60a5dtst2aw6

CWM based Recovery –this is the working CWM recovery (recovery.img) for the myPhone A818

http://www.mediafire.com/?jt482l02ls8kl4h

MT6573_Android_scatter.txt –we need this scatter text file.

http://www.mediafire.com/view/?tkizuj24vntmt9r

Root A818 –update file for rooting the A818.

http://www.mediafire.com/?kmbkj29lccsaili

Steps

Once the drivers are properly installed and the SP Flash Tool is already extracted and accessible, turn off your myPhone A818 and remove its battery.

Run SP Flash Tool.

Click the Scatter-loading button and navigate to the downloaded MT6573_Android_scatter.txt file.

Be sure that the RECOVERY is the only one selected, click on it and browse on the downloaded recoveryNonTouch.img file.

Click the Download button and just ignore the warnings.

Attach the battery again and connect the phone, be sure not to turn it on yet.

Wait for the process to complete. You will see a Green Circle with a label saying download okay. Normally, this process doesnt takes too much time and not more than 5 minutes as you were just writing a small-size recovery.img file.

How to enter into CWM recovery

Be sure that your phone is turned off.

Press Volume up + Volume down and power button until a set of choices appears then just press the up button to enter recovery.

With the CWM recovery, you can easily make a full back-up of your phone. This is as well called as Nandroid back-up. Just be sure you have enough storage on your SD card. Just select Select backup and restore, then choose back up and wait for it to finish.

How to root myPhone A818

Copy the RootA818.zip file on your SD card.

Enter CWM recovery.

Select install zip from sdcard, choose zip from sdcard, then locate RootA818.zip.

Select Reboot system now.

To know verify if the rooting process is a success, look for the SuperUser app in your drawer, or just check root access with the Root Checker app from the PlayStore.

Enjoy!

[LG Optimus 2x] jtbthatsme:
Hi there so I today truied to update to Eagles Blood custom Rom using Rom Manager to flash the new rom onto my O2x. The rom supposedly installed correctly but then when it booted it just gets to the unlock screen you unlock it then it reboots after a couple of seconds.

I can't get into recovery mode by the usual power on volume down technique as this just results in the phone continuing to load. I have tried different combos of power button reboots with volume button up, volume down and both together none work the only difference is that one of those results in just the LG logo rebooting.

I read a few posts about using nvflash or even the lg recovery tool using imei number etc but still no dice basically when I do the connect to the pc with both volume buttons pressed and the battery out it connects but doesn't recognise the device. I try the device manager and updating or removing the driver but regardless of how and what I try it either tells me it's using the most current driver or that no driver is actually installed.

This the same when using NV Flash i can't apx drivers installed and the device if I try to skip that step and go straight to the flash.bat command i just get usb device not found or connected or something like that.

Please help i am willing to try anyrhing and i really don't have the money for a new phone. I only have to get it working long enough or far enough so i can reinstall my backup i did before attempting the rom install this morning.
[LG Optimus 2x] genemini:
try connecting to different usb port(I suggest the backport of your PC)

and if that didn't work, must be a faulty cable.
[LG Optimus 2x] jtbthatsme:
Unfortunately the cable is fine as if I'm not holding the power or volume keys I'm charging the batteries. I'm thinking there's something wrong with windows and the way it detects it possibly as i've trawled a fair amount of forums and tried a lot of what others have managed to get working with exception to someone else who had the same problem but couldn't get a resolution (that he posted about).
[LG Optimus 2x] cokthemhok:
May be your USB port was broken. :(
[LG Optimus 2x] kingvortex:
Have you actually installed the apx drivers required for nvflash to work?

http://www.modaco.com/topic/335416-nvflash-setup-instructions-drivers-links-active/
[LG Optimus 2x] genemini:
you're not on Hard Brick, right?

can you try Smartflashing?

you need to install LG united drivers first.
[LG Optimus 2x] jtbthatsme:
APX won't install

So the problem is that my PC will pick up the unknown device. But it will not allow the install of the drivers. I can install the LG universal driver. The phone will connect as a unknown device only with error code 43 (device has been stopped) you try installing the APX drivers and the install of those drivers fail with error code 10 (can't start the device) this happens on both my stuffed phone and the brand new replacement so I am at a loss I have tried this on Windows 7 pc and also a Win 7 laptop (64 bit and 32 bit respectively).

The whole affair is frustrating as hell as I an't get my new O2x recognised either I can't root that to put my nandroid backup on and I am stuck on Froyo that I can't seem to root at all or even use lg update tool to update it to the latest stock firmware.
[LG Optimus 2x] jtbthatsme:
WHat about rooting apps

So with the obvious ways not working are there any actual apps I can install on my phone that will root it that way I am certain this is how I did it on my first O2x just can't remember what the name of the app was. So if anyone has apps or links to apps that may do this and or do do this please post back.
[LG Optimus 2x] kingvortex:
Have you actually tried a different USB cable? I notice you said the cable charges the phone, but this doesn't mean that other cores/pins other than the ones used for charging aren't damaged.
[LG Optimus 2x] Erroneous91:
different windows and different drivers

My suggestion would be try it on some other computer and different drivers. Or on same computer but reinstall Windows and ofc different drivers.

I'm suggesting this because I had experienced some what similar things on LG phones.

Its to do with booting the phone up quicker and nothing to do with fastboot commands. I imagine its like a hibernation type thing you get on your windows laptop.

[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jonmorris:
I expect this question to appear on forums everywhere as more people get this phone and try it out in water.

I must be too old and remember when everyone had a waterproof radio for the shower (as they were advertised everywhere as the perfect gadget gift idea).. Which was fine until water got on the speaker and it got all muffled. Same thing with the XZ! And perhaps why we don't all have radios in the shower anymore! :)
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arcadebod:
Whoops Ive called up three to exchange my Xperia Z as I thought it had developed a volume fault.

[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demonizator:
It just happened to me. You know what I did? Placed the Z's speaker against my notebook's fan, like 10 cm away. In less than 10 mins I received a notification and the volume was high again! So I guess blowing it with hot air does the trick..

:D
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sucker for sony's:
I have just ordered myself a c6603 model (UK) and was worried because my bro said that the z has speaker probs but now I have read this thread I am not worried anymore. It does make sense to lower the speaker volume when in water because if you think about it, when the speaker is on it vibrates causing pressure variation so in theory it could suck in water through the protective mesh at full volume. But my acro s doesn't lower the volume when under water or wet and its OK, strange how the z seems to need a little extra protection from water but then again it is an expensive device I suppose.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DoM!niC:

Depends upon your choice.

Battery backup isnt a case. Because, it depends upon your phone's usage.

If you want a more stabler ROM, go for CM9. If you want all latest features, I mean the Jelly Bean variant, then, opt for CM10. CM9 is the only ROM which is highly stable. CM10 has few bugs, in features which you wouldn't be using in day to day life. Example: USB thethering.
